Update: 11th October 2014
Oct. 11th, 2014 11:48 amI've been checking out Amazon, to see if any of the stories I've ghostwritten are published, and I am currently a very happy writer. There is one story in particular, one I obviously can't talk about in a public place, that has several five start reviews, so it's become obvious I need to start work on my own novellas. My plan is to find a nice simple way to get my books onto Amazon without having to ring the IRS or jump through too many hoops, because I really don't have a lot of time at the moment. I probably shouldn't be writing this, as I have orders to work out, but I'm too happy to keep everything to myself, especially as James is currently working on the car (well, actually he's sleeping, but he's at his nan's because he's working on the car, so I can't talk to him).
There are five series I want to start working on, which has gone up from the three from before. I have the Sleeping World series, which, annoyingly, I seemed to begin in the middle, so I'm going to have to see where I'm going with that. I have the Ships' series, books loosely connected to Kim's Earth. I have the Demon Assassins (who, like all of my characters, have decided to tell me that all of my preconceptions were wrong and I'm just going to have to deal with it). I have a vampire series I began for someone else, but he didn't want it, so I'm going to finish it. I have Missing, a story about a girl in a coma who ends up travelling through a number of fictional worlds (I'll be focusing on mine to begin with, but if anyone would be interested in me travelling to their worlds let me know).
Due to my time being so limited (I love that I'm busy and I hate it at the same time - the money is wonderful, but I want to be working on my own work as well) the only way I can see of fitting this all in is for me to offer... well, they aren't written, so they aren't technically preorders, but every $5 will get you a novella. Basically I need to be earning a little from these to begin with in order for me to be able to do what I want to be doing. At Fiverr I earn $5 for 1000 words (technically $4, because they take a dollar, but close enough) so my aim for these is to earn $5 per 5000 words, so I need $25 for each completed novella. My Paypal, for anyone who'd been interested in helping me out with this, is k_a_webb[@]live[dot]co[dot]uk. If you let me know which one you want me to work on I'll try to put that at the top of the list.
